Chapter 692
It's night!
In the guest house in Hengyuan County, Qin Yu, Meng Fang and Zhang Haiming seemed to be waiting for something in Qin Yu's room.
Compared with the anxious looks of Meng Fang and Zhang Haiming, Qin Yu's expression was much calmer, holding a book in his hand, and he was reading it with relish.
"Qin Yu, will the Wang family really make a move tonight?"
In the end, Meng Fang still couldn't hold his breath anymore and asked towards Qin Yu.
"I don't know. Qin Yu shook his head and replied truthfully.
"I don't know, then what are we waiting for here?" Hearing Qin Yu's answer, Meng Fang's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked.
"By the way, I just read the local history of Hengyuan County and found an interesting problem. ”
The corners of Qin Yu's mouth rose slightly, and he didn't answer Meng Fang's question, but instead looked at Zhang Haiming and asked, "Director Zhang, you are a local in this county, do you know that there used to be a big family in this county, the Wang family." ”
"I did hear of it, but that was many years ago, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Wang family declined, speaking of this Wang family, it is also a big strange news in our county. ”
Zhang Haiming fell into memories and said slowly: "I also heard from the older generation, it is said that at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the entire Wang family had a plague, and in a few days, the entire family died, the scene was very terrifying, the mountains of the Wang family were full of graves, and nearly a thousand people of the Wang family were gone, and there was no one left." ”
"Then who buried those people from the Wang family?" Qin Yu asked curiously.
"I don't know about this, it should be someone near the Wang family, after the news of the Wang family getting the plague and exterminating the clan spread, the people from several nearby villages moved away, for fear of being infected with the plague, and no one cared about this. Zhang Haiming shook his head and guessed.
However, there is another rumor. Zhang Haiming suddenly lowered his voice. Glancing at Meng Fang, he had some concerns, Meng Fang saw Zhang Haiming's concerns, and said, "It's okay, if there are any rumors, just say it." ”
"In fact, my ancestor was not far from the Wang family's compound, that is, in the next village, according to the ancestor later, the Wang family actually did not die of the plague, but was taken away by the Yin soldiers, and that night the next village heard the sound of neat footsteps from the Wangjiazhuang. It sounded like an army marching, and the neighing of horses. The older generation said that it was the Yin soldiers who passed by and took away the soul of the Wang family, but because of the taboo, they didn't say it to the public. ”
"The Yin Soldier passed by and took away the soul?"
Qin Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the record of the local chronicle in his hand: "At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Wang family, the largest family in this county, was infected with the plague overnight, and nearly 1,000 people of the entire clan died, and the nearby residents fled when they heard about it. ”
"Didn't anyone investigate at that time?" Meng Fang also felt that something was wrong. No matter how powerful the plague is, it is impossible to kill a large family of nearly a thousand people overnight, and it is only this one family, but there is nothing to do in other nearby villages.
"At that time, it was an era when warlords were divided and human life was as cheap as dogs. Whether it was a plague or not, no one wanted to approach it, and the above was finally treated as a plague. ”
What Zhang Haiming said is also true, the ancient people were superstitious. Whether it's a plague or a really yin soldier passing by, it's not a good thing, plague words. I'm afraid of infection, if it's really a yin soldier, then I have to avoid it, anyway, the Wang family is dead, so just fool the above.
"It's also strange to say that although the Wang family was the largest family in the county at that time, there were no heirs as officials, and even no one went out, and the Wang family all stayed in Wangjiazhuang. ”
Zhang Minghai finally said another sentence, which made Qin Yu and Meng Fang show confused expressions on their faces, to say that in ancient times, Shinong Industry and Commerce: Shi, that is, being an official, was ranked first, and generally big families would train their heirs to study and become scholars, like the Wang family, it is really rare for the children of the family to nest in the village.
"This Wang family is also very mysterious when you describe it, Director Zhang, do you know where the old site of Wangjiazhuang is?" Qin Yu pondered for a while and continued to ask.
"I really don't know this, Hengyuan County at that time was a little closer to the sea, and now it has undergone a great migration, Mr. Qin, a place like ours surrounded by mountains, once abandoned and uninhabited, it will not take a few decades, it will be covered by mountains and forests, and it is difficult to identify it. ”
Zhang Haiming's answer made a look of disappointment flash on Qin Yu's face, and he was about to ask again, but Zhang Haiming's mobile phone rang at this time.
"Hey, it's me, what, there's movement over there, someone is coming out?" Zhang Haiming's voice suddenly rose a few decibels, Qin Yu stood up from the chair, and Meng Fang and the two of them looked at Zhang Haiming for a moment.
"You listen to me, keep an eye on it immediately, don't be discovered, keep in touch at any time, Secretary Meng and I will come over immediately. Zhang Haiming hung up the phone and looked at Meng Fang after finishing one after another, and there was no need for him to repeat it, Meng Fang and Qin Yu already knew the content of the phone.
"Let's go, get over now. ”
The three of them quickly left the room, and there was already a car waiting at the door, and after getting into the car, they went directly in the direction of Wang's house.
"Zhang Ju, a man in black with a hat came out of the Wang family, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but judging from his figure and walking posture, he should be a young man. ”
Zhang Minghai drove the car to a distance of one street from Wang's house and stopped, and the two men walked over quickly and whispered outside the car window.
"Where did you go?"
"Went to the east, Xiao Jun and Dong Han followed. ”
"Alright, you continue to watch, and continue to report any movements. ”
Zhang Haiming waved his subordinates to retreat, looking at Meng Fang and Qin Yu in the back seat, and finally fell on Qin Yu, after this day's contact, he has understood that this Mr. Qin is a master invited by Secretary Meng, and Secretary Meng will listen to this Mr. Qin about the sculpture.
"Contact those two and see where that person goes, and let's follow. Qin Yu spoke slowly, a glint flashing in his eyes.
Zhang Haiming drove the car towards the east of the city and dialed the phone number of the person who was following him.
"Xiao Jun, where are you now, tell me the address, and we will come over immediately. As soon as the phone was connected, Zhang Haiming first asked directly, but then his expression froze, and after a long time, he commanded into the phone: "Stay where you are, I'll be there soon." ”
"Secretary Meng, Mr. Qin, that person ran away. Zhang Haiming said with some apprehension.
"Ran away, two policemen can still let people run away, Zhang Haiming, what do the people below you do. Meng Fang's face suddenly darkened, and he reprimanded angrily: "First let Wang Rui go without permission, and now he has lost people with him, I very much doubt that you, the director, are competent or incompetent." ”
"Secretary Meng, there is no way for the people below, follow the man in black to the outside of the East City, isn't there a bay connected to the East China Sea, and it is dozens of meters high, who knows that the man in black will jump down directly, so he lost it. Zhang Haiming explained with a bitter face.
Dozens of meters high halfway up the mountain, there is a reef below, who dares to jump down, the two policemen did not expect that the person they followed was so bold, and when they caught up quickly, they couldn't even see a splash.
"Let's go, go back to Wang's house. Qin Yu's eyes suddenly flashed, and he commanded Zhang Haiming.
"Oh, good. Zhang Haiming was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, he is also an old policeman, and he quickly understood what Qin Yu meant, since that person has been lost, it is better to go to the Wang family and see who walked out of the Wang family.
Returning to the Wang family, Zhang Haiming stepped forward and knocked on the door, the door opened, and a middle-aged woman appeared in front of Qin Yu.
"Director Zhang, why are you here late at night?"
"Sister-in-law Wang, didn't this Wang Rui leave, how can it be regarded as a death in the line of duty, I will come to worship on behalf of Secretary Meng. ”
This is the rhetoric that Qin Yu and Zhang Haiming have explained, and now is not the time for a showdown with the Wang family, as for Meng Fang, he stayed outside in the car and did not follow.
"Secretary Meng has a heart, and thank you Director Zhang, it's just that this big night, it's a little inconvenient, or Director Zhang will come over again during the day, this night will move the mourning hall, for fear of alarming Xiao Rui's undead, it will be bad." The middle-aged woman replied with some embarrassment.
"Sister-in-law Wang, did Director Wang sleep?" Qin Yu, who was standing behind Zhang Haiming, suddenly asked.
He ...... He was asleep. The middle-aged woman was panicked by Qin Yu's sudden question, and then explained: "Lao Wang, he is too sad and haggard, and now he has fallen asleep." ”
"Oh. Qin Yu nodded, didn't ask any more, looked behind her through the figure of the middle-aged woman, in the Wang family's compound, there was only one room with lights on.
"That's right, we came here this time to worship Wang Rui on behalf of Secretary Meng, or let us put on a few pillars of incense, so that we can go back and explain to Secretary Meng. ”
"Yes, sister-in-law Wang, we promise to be very careful, there will be no big movement, and we will leave after a few pillars of incense. Zhang Haiming echoed Qin Yu's words.
"That'...... All right. The middle-aged woman finally agreed, but added an extra reminder: "The one in my family has already fallen asleep, you move lightly, since Xiao Rui went crazy, Lao Wang has not slept well, and now he finally fell asleep, if he is woken up, he will definitely not be able to sleep all night, and I hope you two will forgive me." ”
"Sister-in-law, we can save it. Zhang Haiming and Qin Yu exchanged a look, nodded, and followed the middle-aged woman into the courtyard.
The middle-aged woman took the two of them to the mourning hall, there were only two red candles burning in this mourning hall, and white cloths were hung on both sides, plus the red coffin, Zhang Haiming couldn't help but shudder, but Qin Yu looked at the mourning hall with interest, and looked around a few times.
